Last fall we were in Curacao (our 3rd trip)during the month of October. During the week we were there the local children were off of school for the week. As a result, some of our favorite places, like Porto Mari were very crowded with school children. Not my idea of a nice quiet vacation for two.

We are considering another trip this fall, possibly mid-October. However, before booking the week I wanted to find out what week the school children will be off this fall so as not to book our trip at the same time.
